Vikings' WR Stefon Diggs' knee swelled overnight and he now needs to test it pregame to determine whether he can play today against the New England Patriots, per league source. Diggs back to being questionable today.

Diggs was officially listed as questionable on the team’s injury report. He was held out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday but was a limited participant on Friday. On Thursday he told media he would play. Now with this setback, he’ll be a game-time decision against the Patriots on Sunday.

Cornerback Xavier Rhodes, who was listed as questionable with a hamstring injury, is also said to be a game-time decision. We’ll provide an update when the team announces the inactive players prior to kickoff (~2pm).
